17 October 2012 hi

Up to some extent, it is not mandatory to have Independent Director by the company, but some committee of the Board of Directors demand the majority of members of the committee as Independent Director.

If that provision are not applicable on unlisted public company then no need to have Independent director in the company.

17 October 2012 Hi

Section 292A relating to Audit Committee talking only for director who are other than MD/WTD/manager.

Basically, section 292A discuss with composition of Audit Committee of executive and non-executive directors but they are not mandatory to have such non-executive as Independent director.

17 October 2012 Yes, it is not required to appoint independent directer in the Non Listed Public Companies.

As such, the requirement of other committees of Board, it requires just non executive directors.
